In today’s diverse workplaces, being inclusive is essential to working together effectively. However, it requires a shift in mindset, skills, and behaviors that may not have been emphasized in the past. Inclusion has become a critical skill that future leaders must master to be successful.
Questions may arise, such as:
- What do you say when someone says something inappropriate at your meeting?
- What do you do when a joke is made that’s not a joke for everyone?
- And how do you even recongnize what is and isn’t acceptable?
- And what if the behavior comes from a senior leader, or even your own boss?
To help you address these challenges we are excite to offer all members of the Millennial/GenZ committee a complimentary 1-hour interactive online training session on Interrupting Bias.
The session will help you find practical strategies for addressing bias in the workplace. We will practice with real-life scenarios commonly encountered in meetings and conferences in out industry. Through an interactive exercise, you’ll learn how to effectively and respectfully navigate these situations, helping you to contribute to a more inclusive work environment.
